---------------------------------------

Hi [~gf2121], I don't know what "Task" means either. :) I haven't planned to 
work on it, feel free to take it!

> Improve BKDWriter's DocIdsWriter to better encode decreasing sequences of doc 
> IDs

> [~gf2121] recently improved DocIdsWriter for the case when doc IDs are dense 
> and come in the same order as values via the CONTINUOUS_IDS and BITSET_IDS 
> encodings.
> We could do the same for the case when doc IDs come in the opposite order to 
> values. This would be used whenever searching on a field that is used for 
> index sorting in the descending order. This would be a frequent case for 
> Elasticsearch users as we're planning on using index sorting more and more on 
> time-based data with a descending sort on the timestamp as the last sort 
> field.
